About Me

I am a screen printer by trade and have printed on T-shirts / paper
metals and vinyls, I think i have always loved playing with colours and creating.
I started scrapbooking in November 2006
My favourite layouts are heritage/distressed type layouts, I love to capture the mood and fell for all things old but loved. Scrapbooking started out as a way to preserve my families history and grew into something much more.
I now do altered art and mixed media . I love the social side,going to crops
and camps i get to meet and make friends that i would never have meet otherwise,

I store my label sets in a folder with clear sleeves,this way i can flick through and see what i haveand they stay together

My sticker alphabets i keep in this concertina folder,again its easy to find what i wont.

Storing this way means i can take these with me to crops and camps easily.You can also store rubons this way. If you would like to join in our chat about storage ideas etc,just click HERE we would love to shear ideas with you
